The mystery surrounding the bizarre ‘alien‘ mummies found in Peru has deepened after scientists claimed they discovered a fetus inside the womb of one of the ‘corpses’.
Dozens of mummified bodies were found in the Nazca desert in 2017 by a local named Leandro Rivera, sparking years of investigation into their origins.
The other-worldly figures were later found to have metal implants in their three-fingered hands and elongated heads.
However, other scientists who claimed to have analyzed the specimens determined the ‘mummies’ were dolls made from animal bones fused with modern glue.
But Dr David Ruiz Vela, a lead expert investigating the alleged remains, has now revealed that his team discovered a fetus inside a mummy named Montserrat while analyzing the remains at a radiology center in Lima.
Dr Ruiz Vela believes Montserrat died 1,200 years ago.
CT scans captured the ‘fetus’ lying on its back, with its head down near the belly area and chest with its arms closer to the pelvic region.
Scientists suggested its bones were still soft, just starting to harden, when Montserrat died, leaving parts of the spine and ribs unable to fuse together.
